Super Hero Cake: The Dynamic Duo

My good friend Emily has the challenge of having her kids' birthdays in the same month. To add to that challenge, she has one boy & one girl...which can make choosing a theme problematic. But she has managed to combine their birthdays into one party successfully by choosing themes that all the kids love. This year it was one that is always popular with boys AND girls...SUPER HERO!

She fell in love with a cake she had seen from a super hero party featured on Amy Atlas. So I was happy to make her a similar one, but tailored to her party of course.

The top tier was vanilla cake with chocolate chip filling...bottom tier was chocolate with cookies & cream filling and all the decorations were made from homemade marshmallow fondant.
